Modern Art Gallery

I visited this museum around noon on a rainy Sunday, and there were very few people, which made it easy to explore. The ground floor is mainly the entrance, ticket office, and shop, while the first and only floor houses the art, objects, and photography. The archive is also there, but it’s closed to the public and only accessible by appointment. Information is available in both English and Italian, although some parts are not translated. The exposition is small, so you can see the entire museum in 30 minutes or less, making it a nice quick stop. There is an elevator and toilets available for convenience. The ticket is included with the San Marino pass, which is very handy. If visiting on its own, the price may feel a bit high compared to the size of the exhibition, so it’s something to keep in mind if your time or budget is limited.

No need to visit this place unless you purchase the tickets available for accessing 8 museums. Upon entering, you will be given a key for the locker where you are asked to store your bags. The main and only exhibition is at the second floor, where only very few art works were presented. Also, one of the staff followed us to the second floor and kept supervising us till the end of our visit. Overall, no need to come if you don’t have enough time!

Today I had the most pleasant visit at this beautiful place. I was lucky enough to get a guided tour with a guide who had amazing expertise, not only on the art in the gallery but also on the history of San Marino. Later I wandered along the narrow path of the old railway tunnel, thinking about the human instinct to go into the forest to heal; to first find a connection with nature, and after that, with yourself again. And then to exhale that trauma onto the canvas, to connect with others once more. There’s something so fragile and yet extremely strong in that, all at the same time. Thank you Rita Canarezza for a truly memorable and thought-provoking experience!

I visited Modern art gallery in San Marino on 11/8/2025, and had an amazing time there. The exhibition on contemporary art was great and deep. When I couldn't understand a particular piece, Respected Rita Canarezza who is currently working there explained it through and through. Her knowledge, and enthusiasm towards the art collection is inspiring. I strongly recommend visiting the Galleria of you can. My favourite piece was Excercises for polluted minds by Martina Conti.

Contemporary art. I do know of every guest but we were followed by a member of staff all the way. It was not pleasant.

Nice gallery, worth of visiting! Professional staff takes good care of visitors. With multimuseo-card you can enter many places including this gallery. And it's only 10,50€!

Small gallery with contemporary art. Worth a visit.

Weirdly got followed by a staff member as we browsed the gallery. We were the only visitors, which made for a very uncomfortable visit. My daughter was yelled at for looking at a fire exit map, as the staff member thought she was going to go through a door. Hardly any art pieces. Unless you get free entry with your San Marino pass, it’s probably not worth the visit.
